G'day Jenny
If I type in "Jenny Brandis" arachne to Google.com.au I get 1,500 results
So you can see, choosing your words carefully can impact your results.
Adding the inverted commas in front and behind my name forces the search to
only give results that have the 2 words in a phrase.
This rule about the inverted commas is vital for easy searching. It
also applies of course to an entire phrase or sentence (in the case
of poems or songs).
To add a little more to your comments: when your first page of
results appear you can then click on "advanced search". There you
will find a window which says something like "exclude these words".
Then if you were searching say the surname FLEMYNG for family
history, you can type FLEMING, FLEMMING and Jason. He's a popular UK
actor who drives me crazy when Im researching my FLEMYNGs!!
Just thoughts
